And may they be called by my name and the names of my fathers Abraham and Isaac, and may they grow into a multitude upon the earth.”Genesis 48:17When Joseph saw that his father had placed his right hand on Ephraim’s head, he was displeased and took his father’s hand to move it from Ephraim’s head to Manasseh’s.Genesis 48:18“Not so, my father!” Joseph said. “This one is the firstborn; put your right hand on his head.”Genesis 48:19But his father refused. “I know, my son, I know!” he said. “He too shall become a people, and he too shall be great; nevertheless, his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his offspring shall become a multitude of nations.”Genesis 48:20So that day Jacob blessed them and said: “By you shall Israel pronounce this blessing: ‘May God make you like Ephraim and Manasseh.’” So he put Ephraim before Manasseh.Genesis 49:25by the God of your father who helps you, and by the Almighty who blesses you, with blessings of the heavens above, with blessings of the depths below, with blessings of the breasts and womb.Genesis 49:26The blessings of your father have surpassed the blessings of the ancient mountains and the bounty of the everlasting hills.
